Day 13; out and terrified

Sorry for not posting last night. I was just too tired by the time I got home at 11.
Hayden was extubated and it went very well. He was breathing comfortably. He was very scared, upset and unhappy. He kept tearing up and crying. Anytime someopne even wlked by he froze up ans cried.
Although we do have a team working with us on withdrawal, their instructions were not followed, exaclty, and by last night he was showing some symptoms. They went up and his dose amd are revisting the withdrawal , again, to formulate a good plan. I will not allow that t happen
Hayden has a small pleural fusion ( fluid) on his right side, now. Nothing like what had to be drained the other day. It is being watched, ut they think moving around and some extra diuretics will help that.
I am headed down, now and will update later.
